Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to clear a green pool?
Most green pools in the Austin area are swimmable within 48 to 72 hours. Severe cases — especially pools that have been neglected for months — may take up to a week if the filter media needs replacement and multiple rounds of vacuuming are required.
Why did my pool turn green?
Algae blooms happen when sanitizer levels drop below effective range, usually due to a pump failure, a chemical imbalance, or heavy organic debris after a storm. Austin's heat accelerates algae growth dramatically — a pool can go from slightly cloudy to full green in 24 to 48 hours during summer.
Can I swim in a green pool?
No. A green pool harbors bacteria, parasites, and high levels of organic contaminants. It's not safe to swim in until the water has been properly treated, filtered, and tested. We'll confirm the water is safe before giving you the all-clear.
I'm in West Austin — which page should I look at?
Depends on the exact location. If you're inside the City of West Lake Hills (78746), see our dedicated Westlake Hills page. If you're in the City of Rollingwood, use the Rollingwood page. If you're in the Lost Creek master-planned community (78735), use the Lost Creek page. For Far West and the other West Austin zip codes, this umbrella page covers you — we serve all of it weekly.
Can you service older pools with outdated equipment?
Absolutely. We work on pools of every era, including systems from Purex, original Jandy, and early Pentair equipment. When parts are no longer available, we know the modern equivalents that fit without requiring a full replumb. West Austin's older housing stock is full of these legacy systems and we see them every week.
